Just noticed this that my passenger side works perfect but drivers side running board lights (both) do not light up---Is there a fuse to each side, I looked and didnt see anything unless Im missing something

Did you look for voltage at the connector? Because it's possible that both bulbs went out at the same time.

This happened to me on my college car - was tearing the harness apart when I had a "duh" moment and checked at the connector.

I would try swapping bulbs 1st, stranger things have happened than both burning out before you noticed, it is the passenger side after all.

Yea I would find it ODD both out at same time--I replaced them with LED's and everything has been great.. Just Both front/back on drivers side running board are out

there are two wires that come down from the body and connect at a single location on the back of the running board. lie down roughly between the front and rear doors and look up. mine had broken a single wire at the base of the connector. I see you are in Alaska. I think mine accumulated snow and ice on the wiring, causing it to break.

I haven't taken the time to source a new connector and solder it in yet, but will need to do that repair myself.

Wow--Just went out and looked, Bingo broken wire at the connector, thanks for the help now we both need to get it fixed lol. should be simple I think, but the wire is broken off right inside the connector probably just like yours

BlairC

exactly how mine is broken. I just clipped both off so they wouldn't short anything until I can get a real fix in place.

Same thing here, an easy fix

BlairC

how did you fix, mine looked to be broken clean at the base of the connecter. can you get that connecter apart to fix it?

Booyah

I havent looked into it yet but I may just cut each connector off and do some splicing of wire and heat shrink it, should be fine to do it that way.
